| مستخلص: |
While online synchronous writing consultations predate the COVID-19 pandemic by at least a decade, the contingencies of the pandemic have left many writing centers scrambling to shift to online-only or hybrid formats. Amid such sudden changes in operations, center administrators and consultants often miss the opportunity to examine the tools that facilitate digital consultations. After analyzing trends in the foci of consultations at the Duke University Thompson Writing Program (TWP) Writing Studio prepandemic, early-, and mid-pandemic, this article offers a "critical digital pedagogy7" reading of one the most popular online writingconsultation platforms, WCOnline. Close reading the aesthetics and features of WCOnline--such as the whiteboard, LiveChat, and video windows--we highlight the software's implicit pedagogical biases. In response to these close readings, we offer a set of best practices for maximizing the pedagogical affordances of WCOnline, paying particular attention to rapport building, gestural language, written chat and notetaking, and textual annotations.
